OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, AUGUST 31, 1922, snus PAGE FIVE -- { Sporting World News Advance Residence Rule In C.O.B.L. to Jan. 1st Executive Decides to Recommend This to Annual Meeting of the League--Tyson Reprimanded--Play Off Dates For Winners of Two Series Considered A recommendation that the January 1st residence rule be adopted for 1923, was brought in at a full executive meeting held in Port Hope Tuesday "afternoon and it will be forwarded to the annual general meeting of the Cen- tral League next April, The executive voted unanimously in favor of moving the date of residence forward from May 15 to January 1, It was the gen- eral opinion that unless a measure of that nature were introduced at this stage, the Central Ontario League might as well turn semi-professional or it would be wrecked, Will Apply Next Year That the new rule will go into effect next year is practically assured, as it is felt that those interested in the progress of the league realize the value of getting away from some of the dif- ficulties of the present season, At the annual session this year the most suc- cessful season in the history was pre- dicted and from the point of rivalry it has been, But from other standpoints certain unpleasant incidents have arisen which might have been avoided, but with a new residence rule and the new executive following out the atti- tude of the present executive Tuesday there is no doubt but that the Central League will uphold the enviable repu- tation it has gained in the four years since it was formed, Never has the rivalry been so keen in any league as in the C.0.B.L. this year and this lar- gely has been responsible for trouble with umpires, particularly in close games and on the part:of the losing team. Down to Business. All personal matters were forgotten when the executive got together Tues- day in the Queens' #otel at Port Hope and a number Zomplaints, together with the umpire situation, ~ were threshed out, while the dates of the play-off between Peterboro and the 'winners of the second half were de- cided providing no upset occurs. Cat- cher Tyson, of the Cobourg Club, was severely censured and Secretary Nott was instructed to write him, strongly reprimanding him for his actions to- ward Umpire Rosevear in the Cobourg- Leaside game, President Parsons introduced the question of umpires, pointing out that there had been a good deal of criticism during the present season over their work, both at the plate and on the bases. "I will honestly say," declared Mr. Parsons, "that I have not seen an umpire in the Central League this year who could be termed bad. As a result of the recent trouble we have had quite a bit of juggling to find umpires to officiate at regular games." The pre- sident brought out the fact that Jack Rosevear had quit the game and at the same time had shown himself to be a good sport by not presenting a report of the affair which occurred in Lea- side. The league had to take a stand | when a man of Rosevears' calibre was | driven out of baseball. It was a di tinct loss to the league and he asked for the version of Mr. Peacock of Leaside, and Mr. Barnes, of Cobourg. Bad Element With Cobourg In Mr. Peacock's opinion the umpires were perfectly satisfactory. ""There never was an umpire nor there never will be one who is perfect," he said. "It is happening in all the big leagues. There is a difficulty in get- ting good umpires and when a man like Rosevear drops out, it is a serious thing. We want to keep the good work going." In reference to Tyson's tactics at Leaside, Mr. Peacock stated that Hoose was on third base at the time, and the batter bunted. Hoose scored and Umpire Rosevear called bim safe. There was no question about the runner being safe, but Tyson threw his glove and cage at Mr. Rose- vear after which the Cobourg catcher was banished. Unfortunately, stated Mr. Peacock, there was a bad element up with Cobourg that day and a man who was occupying a seat im the Cobourg dugout was ordered into the grandstand. This man abused Mr. Rosevear all the afternoon and follow- ing the game rushed on to the field, grabbing the official by the throat. "That Tyson should resort to such tac- tics was a big surprise," continued Mr. Peacock, "and my mind was made up at the time to introduce a recommen- dation for his jon but, id- ering what it meant to the Cobourg Club, I have decided mot to do so." Tyson Reprimanded. Mr. Barnes intimated that Cobourg fans and players alike expected Tys- on's suspension would follow and that he himself would sooner see the Co- bourg Club wrecked than tolerate such actions. Tyson himself felt very badly about it, but Cobourg supporters could not understand why he did it. President Parsons pointed out that had Umpire Rosevear sent in a report, he would have taken action Vimeelt without consulting the execu- ve. Mr. Lockington contended that Fys- on was not entitled to any more con- sideration than any other player. Hills, of Port Hope, had been suspend- ed for a lesser offence than in this case. Mr. Parsons added that he had received one or two unsigned letters from Cobourg stating that they would mot be responsible for McDonald it he visited Cobourg again in am official capacity. "If we don't protect our umpires, we will have no league or umpires either," he emphasized. Geo. Morris, Oshawa"s representative, thought the executive should not jump on Tyson but request a letter of apol- OgY. Secretary Nott explained that "Tyson had made an apology to Umpire RBosevear as had the Cobourg Club. However, Tyson will be reprimanded and warned that a repetition of such tactics will mean expulsion from the league. President Parsons further stated that Cobourg, Belleville and Peterboro, had taken objections to Umpires Me- Donald and Gloster, of Toronto, If they refused to allow these two offi- cials to work, they would have to do without umpires altogether, Further discussion brought the matter to a satisfactory conclusion and all clubs were satisfied, The question of play- offs dates was then considered, Third Game In Oshawa Even though Oshawa will not be fig- uring in the play-off for the champion- ship of the Central League at the close of the present season, local fans may witness one of the final games. . Pro- viding Belleville wins the second sec- tion, the first game will take place in Belleville on Wednesday, September 13th, with the second game in Peter- boro, on September 16th, In the event of a third game being necessary, it will be staged in Oshawa, The execu- tive yesterday made it an unwritten law that in case of third games to decide the championship of the league, the play-off be passed around until it has covered the circuit. Last year Oshawa and' Belleville settled the ar- {gument in Port Hope while the first section this year between Oshawa and Peterboro was decided at Cobourg. At Peterboro To-day An attempt was made to shorten up the season by working in all games as soon as possible, To carry this out Oshawa were ordered to Peterboro to- day but until this week's fixtures are completed, the executive can do very little in arranging other games. The idea was to declare a winner with a view to being ready for the T.A.B.A. | champions as soon as possible. The | Toronto championship will not be de- cided until September 20th or the 23rd so that there should be ample: time for the play-off in the C.0.B.h. Sub-Committee Changed The personnel of the protest mm tee was one subject for discussion, view of the fact that A. C. Sind of Cobourg, who was appointed a mem- ber of that committee at the first of the season, has since assumed position of manager of the Cobourg team. It was felt that it was not fair to the clubs even although Mr. Kimmell had not shown any partiality to any club. It was decided to ask for his resigna- tion on that committee and Rev. D. C. Ramsay, of Belleville, was appointed to succeed him. The verdict on the Lindsay-Cobourg {protest was given, the protest being dismissed, the game to stand as play- ed. Letters from two members >f the sub-committee were handed to Presi- | dent Parsons and both being of the | same opinion, Cobourg was given the { decision. The Bowmanville representa- tive informed the meeting that his his club wished to drop their protest |against Lindsay for using Reach balls instead of Spalding, as required by the constitution of the league. The Lind- say Club will forfeit their $25 fee in the Cobourg protest. The allotting of umpires for the play-off at the close of the season, was not definitely settled but it was de- cided to use three officials, and if pos- sible to have Jack Rosevear behind the plate in both games and in the third game if one is necessary. The executive of the league will meet in the city where the second game is played immediately after the game to make certain arrangements for bringing the season to a close and consider an All Star game. Town League All Stars Winners at Bowmanville Jack Tharan, manager of the Orien- tal Textile baseball team, took a col- lection of All Stars to Bowmanville Saturday afternoon for a friendly game with a team representing the Bowmanville Athletic Association. The visitors were victorious after a hard hitting contest, the score being 14 to 9. Murray, Chevrolet's pitcher, twirl- ed for the Stars while Blaber, a Cen- tral League artist, hurled for the Knit- ters. Tharan's crew secured eighteen safeties off the big boy while the home team gathered fifteen off Murray. Ex- tra base hits were the order of the af- ternoon, Muirhead clouting a homer, while Petre secured two triples and Murray one. Avery, Blaber, Blanch- ard, Petre and H. Rorabeck rapped out doubles. Murray and Blaber each fan- ned seven men. The visitors were giv- en a good reception and enjoyed their visit. .

Cobourg Gets Even Cobourg Central Ontario League team scarcely gave Port Hope a look- in yesterday afternoon. The score completely turned the tables on an un- expected defeat that Cobourg received at the hands of Port Hope in the last part' of 'the first series. Wins In Eight Lindsay defeated Leaside in yester- day's fixture by 10 to 8. drove Shaw to the showers in the fourth frame, McGuire, who relieved him, pitched good ball for the balance of the game, but his support fell down at critical times. Allen for Lindsay was very wild, giving nine bases on balls, which, coupled with the locals six scattered hits, kept Leaside in the running until the last frame, when the winners put over the two necessary counters.

Bowmanville defeated Belleville continued the fast clip they have been setting in the second section of the Central League by trouncing Bowmanville right in their own village yesterday afternoon 13 to 6.

Should Belleville drop two of their re- | the balance of their fixtures, a tie | for the first place would result. In | that case Cobourg would also hava Sept, sept s6joct, 14, Nov, Sept, 2 |a chance as they have lost only four games.
